Is Love Enough
Thirty days and nights spent alone
Waiting for him to come home
He always seems to be gone
She only hears him on the phone
The few days hes home
She hopes for some time alone
With the trucker she calls her own
No time today shes told with a moan
She never makes the top of his list
With a kiss on her lips
He promises her next time
But for now he has to go
As she waves goodbye to him
A single tear drops from her chin
That's the way its always been
Why bother with waiting again
